Uesugi-kun.

For myself

Take the initiative and give a hug!

Could it be that I've finally gained Uesugi-kun's approval?

Hugging is something that you think only couples do!

As Nohara Kyoko drifted into thought, Uesugi Kiyoshi's mood grew increasingly cheerful the more he looked at her, the gloom brought on by the memories of his past life dissipating.

He said softly, as if nothing had happened, "Xingzi, do you have any wishes? I can help you fulfill them."

Uesugi Kiyoshi longed to see a happy smile on that beautiful and lovely face before him.

So, he blurted it out without even realizing it.

Upon hearing this, Xingzi excitedly looked up abruptly and stammered.

"What...any wish is allowed?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi was bowing his head slightly, while Nohara Kyoko was trying hard to raise her head.

The faint scent of sunlight emanating from Uesugi Kiyoshi's clothes lingered around her nose, and her eyes met the gentle, watery eyes of the young man.

He looked down at the girl, taking in her nervousness, excitement, and shyness, while the rich, fresh scent of herbs filled the air.

Looking into Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes, Nohara Kyoko suddenly forgot what she wanted to say.

I want to date Uesugi-kun with marriage in mind.

I want to do something beyond just embracing.

I want to become Kyoko Uesugi.

She completely forgot about them.

Stunned, she pursed her lips and spoke in her usual soft voice.

"Don't leave me."

Memories flooded back: the heartbreak after my parents' death, the cautiousness of living under someone else's roof, the loneliness and helplessness caused by school bullying, and the despair of struggling to survive in the cracks.

until a certain day.

A ray of light shone into his world.

All she wanted was for this light to stay with her.

because

This might be the only thing she has left.

"Don't leave me! Uesugi-kun!"

"I will be very good and won't make you angry. I will study hard and get into the best university. I will learn to cook your favorite dishes and do housework diligently. Slowly, slowly, I will become someone worthy of Uesugi-kun."

Please don't leave me.

"Please let me stay by Uesugi-kun's side for the rest of my life!"

As she spoke, her voice began to tremble with tears.

It seems that this is what she described, a scene she was terrified of.

Seeing this, Uesugi Kiyoshi felt a pang of pain in his heart and involuntarily leaned down slightly to pat Kyoko's little head.

As if they had met before, he brought his lips close to Xingzi's ear.

"Apricot, this life alone is not enough."

"want"

"Life after life."

Chapter 273 Accident

These words were like the final string that plucked the gears in Kyoko Nohara's heart.

I don't know why, but feelings of grievance, joy, and indescribable emotion all mixed together and finally welled up as tears.

She wanted to say something, but choked up and couldn't speak. She just looked at Uesugi Kiyoshi with her misty eyes, leaned on him, and sobbed softly.

Kyoko Nohara's mind was in a mess, but she felt that her long-cherished wish had been fulfilled, and she would be willing to die now.

The phrase "life after life" was like opening an outlet for Xingzi's emotions, making her unable to control her feelings any longer.

Uesugi Kiyoshi patted Kyoko on the back, wanting to say a few words of comfort to her.

He wasn't forced to have a memory implanted in his mind.

Rather, it was the unlocking of his long-sealed memories.

Therefore, when he looked at Xingzi, he no longer felt any distance from her, because he had spent half his life with the girl in front of him.

But before he could say anything to comfort her, he suddenly raised an eyebrow and looked toward the door.

With a hint of helplessness in his voice, Uesugi Kiyoshi lowered his voice and twitched the corners of his mouth.

"Okay, Anzu, I'm sorry I made you cry."

Uesugi Kiyoshi knew how to stop the tears.

Sure enough, upon hearing Uesugi Kiyoshi's words, Nohara Kyoko quickly shook her head, frantically wiped away her tears, swallowed the sobs in her throat, and spoke with great force.

"No! It's not Uesugi-kun's fault. I didn't cry, I was just so happy!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi patted her head again and smiled, "Then I'm relieved."

"Apricot. I'm hungry."

Kyoko Nohara immediately took a few steps back and said loudly, "Okay! I'll go cook."

After saying that, she turned around, picked up the leather bag from the ground, turned her face away shyly, not daring to look at Uesugi Kiyoshi again, and swung her short legs as she quickly ran to the backyard.

Once Nohara Kyoko's figure had completely disappeared, Uesugi Kiyoshi sighed, stretched, and spoke somewhat awkwardly.

"Oh, sorry, I made you laugh."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the dojo was opened again, and Liu Longren, dressed in a formal suit with bloodstains on his lapel, appeared in his sight.

"Um, I didn't mean to."

Liu Longren was a little embarrassed. He wasn't a gossipy person; he just happened to be at the door and witnessed a romantic drama.

Uesugi Kiyoshi had asked him to come, so he arrived as promised.

Perhaps the awakening of memories from two lifetimes made Uesugi Kiyoshi much more thick-skinned, or perhaps he didn't think that hugging Kyoko was anything out of line. He didn't care much, just glanced at Liu Longren and nodded.

"Looks like the fledgling dragon of Kowloon has been quite busy lately?"

The scattered bloodstains on Liu Longren's clothes were enough to show that he had come from a fierce battlefield.

Honestly, Uesugi Kiyoshi's power is now enough to overwhelm Liu Longren, but back then he was a rising star who was on par with the demon sword Shen Cheng. His martial arts skills were invincible among mortals. If a dozen or so ordinary people surrounded him, he could easily cut them all down without getting a speck of dust on his body.

Sure enough, Liu Longren nodded.

"Well, you should know that I'm the one who gets all the dirty work at the Dongwen Association."

“After cleaning it up, I found many traces of occult practitioners who colluded with ghosts and gods, so I increased the intensity of the investigation.”

"Tsk, the dirtier the work, the more likely it is to attract the attention of ghosts and gods. I understand now why Dongwen Poisonous Snake abandoned these dirty jobs. He was truly prescient."

"These past few days have almost killed me. The enemy isn't strong, it's just that there are too many of them."

Uesugi Kiyoshi shrugged and offered a suggestion.

"Can I borrow some people from you?"

"Well, don't let my appearance fool you, I still have some extraordinary power at my disposal. Or... should I go and help you myself?"

Liu Longren shook his head dismissively, declining the offer.

"Forget it, I can't let you help me every time. Those old fogies in the group will have reasons to impeach me. All they have left to do is talk bad about me to my godfather."

"I have an assessment tonight, so I'm not going to talk anymore. What do you want to say?"

Seeing this, Uesugi Kiyoshi smiled brightly and gestured backward with his hand.

The snow-covered snowman on the floor rose up with a thud, as if drawn by an invisible thread, and fell into Uesugi Kiyoshi's hand.

Then, Uesugi Seiichi waved his hand.

Xue was thrown towards Liu Longren.

As he reached out and took the knife, a strange, blood-related feeling flowed from the blade into Liu Longren's heart.

He looked at the sword with hesitation, his voice becoming somewhat doubtful.

"This is this?"

"This is a sword I acquired by chance. I have enough swords already, and I think its temperament matches yours, so I'm offering it to you as a gift."

Its name is "Snow Walk".

"Here you go, consider it a thank you gift for what you did for me before."

Liu Longren unsheathed his sword, gazed at the blade that resembled a pool of autumn water, and murmured, "I helped you not for a thank-you gift."

Uesugi Kiyoshi pursed his lips and replied, "I gave you this thing not as a thank you, but just out of politeness."

"It's suitable for you, I don't need it, you can take it."

"Maybe it will make you stronger."

Uesugi Kiyoshi's pointed remark brought Liu Longren back to his senses.

His face remained cold, but his words carried a hint of warmth.

"Thank you."

"."

"Haha, it sounds strange, but I've liked you ever since we first met."

"Uesugi, don't you think this is strange?"
